Stevan Ridley Talking Sh!t.

He was a good runner except for the fumbling. If I recall, his last run with the team was the fumble to ice the AFCCG vs Baltimore and he tore his ACL on the hit and was concussed. I’m glad to see he’s still earning a paycheck in the league, considering that bad injury. As for his comments, welcome to the NFL buddy. Your contract was up (you weren’t released or anything). Many players have their own agents call the teams too when there’s interest. Can’t really see the Vader-Palpatine Pats making an appearance here, though I love it when it happens. I’ve fully embraced the dark side image.

Speaking of villains, that was the play John Harbaugh called “football at its finest”. Cool quote, bro. Concussions are soooooo awesome. Nardly!!

As @fnordcircle said, it was Maroney. He pioneered the dancing style that LeVeon Bell has now made popular.

Ridley was a very decisive runner, getting over 1,200 yards and 12 TD's his first year starting. He had great power and was a pretty sure thing in short yardage/goal line situations. Injuries derailed a once promising career.

He was a pretty sure thing when he didn’t put the ball on the ground. But he put the ball on the ground much too often to really be a sure thing.

He remembers the ACL, but forgets fumbling might be a reason he didn’t get a call.

I wonder if maybe we activate Shelton to try to improve the Run D this week? I realize Shelton has been disappointing but maybe he is more motivated now too.

DT Danny Shelton Itching to play....I get an itch just trying to watch him play. So happy GM BB already passed on Shelton and Brown Fifth year options. Their departures can't come soon enough foR me.

Riddler was a fan favorite but we are in a good place at running back let's see if he does his best Brandon Bolden I'm hurt game.

Fan favorite? Who's? Was good in 2012 but other than that nothing to write home about

I wondered the same thing. He hasn’t been great (or even good) but in the two games he’s been inactive we have given up 7+ ypc and 9+ ypc.

Hoodie man is bad.

We should have kept that budding star Akiem Hicks a few moons back I am sure BB is kicking himself. We would have had a Solid D with Hicks right now he's worth every penny he got.

If the running back was carrying a Honey Baked Ham Shelton would find a way to get there.

That one still kills me. He is an All-Pro now at a position we are terrible at. I know Bill tried to throw a last minute offer out there to get him to stay but it just didn’t work. But hey we re-signed Allen Branch lol.

Branch was Good but old age wear and tear and a nice last contract got to best of him. What do we learn from this?? We should have invested in the youth Akiem Hicks going forward oh well.

Ridley probably wont even see the field...and Im happy to see that he is focused entirely on the wrong things....probably much like the Steelers Coach and team overall.....what a frigin ****

Yea I wanted Hicks back but the Branch re-signing was a nice consolation prize at the time. He got fat and happy and that was that.

Ridley vs the Raiders 31st ranked run defense: 5 carries for.... 4 yards.

That’s silly. There’s almost no player in the NFL who won’t fumble when knocked unconscious or nearly so.

That's what you inferred I was implying by posting that GIF?
